Reine is a must-see along Norway’s coast 🏔️
On the northbound journey of the Svalbard Line, guests have time to explore this picture-perfect fishing village and discover the dramatic landscapes that make the Lofoten Islands so special.
A gem of a fishing village perched on a rocky headland in the heart of the Lofoten archipelago in northern Norway, Reine is surrounded by deep-blue fjords and towering mountains so pretty it was once voted the country’s most beautiful settlement. It’s also a wonderful base for experiencing the traditional coastal culture and natural beauty of Lofoten.
